Summary

The krb5_gss_process_context_token function in lib/gssapi/krb5/process_context_token.c in the libgssapi_krb5 library in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) through 1.11.5, 1.12.x through 1.12.2, and 1.13.x before 1.13.1 does not properly maintain security-context handles, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and double free, and daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted GSSAPI traffic, as demonstrated by traffic to kadmind. <a href="http://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/416.html">CWE-416: Use After Free</a>

(CVE-2014-5352) If kadmind were used with an LDAP back end for the KDC database, a remote, authenticated attacker who has the permissions to set the password policy could crash kadmind by attempting to use a named ticket policy object as a password policy for a principal. (CVE-2014-5353) It was found that the krb5_read_message() function of MIT Kerberos did not correctly sanitize input, and could create invalid krb5_data objects. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could use this flaw to crash a Kerberos child process via a specially crafted request. (CVE-2014-5355) A double-free flaw was found in the way MIT Kerberos handled invalid External Data Representation (XDR) data. An authenticated user could use this flaw to crash the MIT Kerberos administration server (kadmind), or other applications using Kerberos libraries, via specially crafted XDR packets.

Security issues fixed: CVE-2014-5351: The kadm5_randkey_principal_3 function in lib/kadm5/srv/svr_principal.c in kadmind in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) sent old keys in a response to a -randkey -keepold request, which allowed remote authenticated users to forge tickets by leveraging administrative access. - CVE-2014-5352: In the MIT krb5 libgssapi_krb5 library, after gss_process_context_token() is used to process a valid context deletion token, the caller was left with a security context handle containing a dangling pointer. Further uses of this handle would have resulted in use-after-free and double-free memory access violations. libgssrpc server applications such as kadmind were vulnerable as they can be instructed to call gss_process_context_token(). - CVE-2014-9421: If the MIT krb5 kadmind daemon receives invalid XDR data from an authenticated user, it may have performed use-after-free and double-free memory access violations while cleaning up the partial deserialization results. Other libgssrpc server applications might also been vulnerable if they contain insufficiently defensive XDR functions. - CVE-2014-9422: The MIT krb5 kadmind daemon incorrectly accepted authentications to two-component server principals whose first component is a left substring of
